Detect and Convert Flash Screens
Since Flash is no longer supported by Adobe as of December 31, 2020, it is no longer possible to display Flash screens as of Multiplayer version 2.9.4.
Therefore, you should convert Flash screens to HTML5 screens before you perform an update for the Multiplayer in the Device Management.
Detect Flash Screens
Usually only certain older screens are affected by this change.
All new screens created in the last 2 years are already HTML5 screens and therefore do not need to be converted.
HTML5 screens can be seen by this icon showing the number 5 → 
.
You can find this icon right next to the icon indicating the alignment → 
.
Flash screens have only the alignment icon.
